Securing Power OT

Compliance Pressure

The power sector must comply with frameworks such as NERC-CIP, IEC 62443, NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), and ISO 27001, but meeting these standards is increasingly difficult due to aging infrastructure, evolving cyber threats, and the need to ensure grid reliability. Limited cybersecurity resources, complex regulatory requirements, and the operational demands of 24/7 energy delivery add further challenges. Without a strong cybersecurity strategy, power companies risk non-compliance, operational disruptions, and national security threats. The challenge isn’t just compliance – it’s securing critical infrastructure while ensuring continuous and reliable service.

OT Cybersecurity Risks

OT systems in the Power industry were originally designed for isolated, closed-loop environments where security was achieved through physical separation. However, digital transformation, automation, and IT/OT convergence have expanded the attack surface, exposing legacy systems and third-party access vulnerabilities. Cyberattacks can disrupt operations, compromise safety, delay supply chains, and trigger regulatory penalties. So, as the energy sector becomes more interconnected, securing OT environments is critical to ensuring grid stability and resilience.
